This poor woman. If you are in any way a Britney Spears fan, and even if you're not, this is important to read. She is literally treated like the protagonist of THE YELLOW WALLPAPER. If we lock her up, we can do whatever we want. Heartbreaking.

I grew up listening and jamming to Britney Spears. To read the grief and terrors she had to go through made me incredibly sad..she paved the way for many women by being the best she could be and giving it her all in the music industry. I am moved by her wisdom to choose light despite the darkness she experienced. May she find peace the rest of her days and the freedom to be who she wants to be.

This was a very interesting read. I learned a lot about Britney that I didn’t know but I don’t feel like maybe she hid something and lied through the book (I could be wrong but I feel something more is there)
